old chunks of coal

  The bituminous coal fields in Harlan County are among the riches in the world. Howard N. Eavenson, of the firm of Eavenson, Alford & Hicks, consulting engineers of Pittsburgh, president of the Claver Splint Coal Co., operating in Harlan County, and formerly consulting engineer for the United States Coal & Coke Company, a subsidiary of the United States Steel Corporation, described the rapid development of the Harlan County coal fields to the high quality of the coal produced there. In testimony during  the 1920's.

 Harlan County was the last of the large coal fields opened and on  account of the excellence of its product, its growth has been  unusually rapid. The coal is largely used for special purposes where a  low-ash and low-sulphur coal is needed. Much of it is used in
by-product coke ovens and the rapid growth of the field was helped by  the great demand during the war for coal yielding large quantities of bensol and tuluol, as this does, needed for explosives. Even though  coal production in Harlan County did not begin until 1911, it mounted  steadily from 2.5 million tons in 1916 to 15 million tons in 1928, which the total bituminous coal production for the United States in  1916 and 1928 was about 500 million net tons." Although Harlan County  did not begin to produce on a commercial scale until 1911, the coal  fields of adjacent counties in eastern Kentucky and those of
northeastern Tennessee rose to a position of importance during the closing decade of the nineteenth century. Actually, first commercial  production in eastern Kentucky started in Laurel County immediately  after the Civil War. Although this County still contains large areas of  unmined coal, there is little or no coal produced there now.
